Thereâs a movement in public schools across the country from Maine to California purporting to improve race relations. To this retired teacher, however, itâs more likely to make them worse.
A week ago, the Washington Free Beacon reported: âThe San Diego Unified School District required teachers to attend a âwhite privilegeâ training session in which they had to say they were racist and âconfrontâ their privilege.â
Itâs not just in California that teachers are being instructed like this. Similar things are happening right here in Maine. âDiversity Trainersâ across the country are collecting enormous fees for telling teachers theyâre racist and, âYou are upholding racist ideas, structures and policies.â
